Setting Up and Configuring Single Sign-On with SiteMinder and OpenSSO Enterprise

To co-locate both SiteMinder and OpenSSO Enterprise in the same federation environment, you must install the OpenSSO Enterprise server and OpenSSO Enterprise policy agents. The setup requires OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 and the corresponding Policy Agents. OpenSSO Enterprise is supported on various containers, however, you must choose a container where both OpenSSO Enterprise and SiteMinder Policy Agents are supported.

The SiteMinder software is not available online, and you must have an account with Computer Associates to obtain the software. To validate this document, the following components were deployed in a lab environment:

• Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0

• Sun Web Server 6.1 SP5

• Sun Directory Server 5.2 SP2

• CA SiteMinder Server 6.0 SP5

• CA SiteMinder Agent 6.0 for iPlanet Web Server 6.1

• CA SiteMinder SDK 6.0 SP5

• Custom codes (Bundled in the OpenSSO Enterprise zip)

The OpenSSO Enterprise bundle ships integration bits contained in the OpenSSO Enterprise WAR file. Instructions for configuring the authentication modules are described in corresponding README files. For more detailed steps for complete integration see the Chapter 2, Integrating CA SiteMinder, in Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Integration Guide.
